But Held for Trying to Break
Jail---Court Doings.
All the evidence, except little teSti-
timony, in rebuttal, is in in the F1anni-
gan -larcency case in Judge Kelly's
court. Edward Flanagan and Charles
Donovan are charged with the robbery
of Herman Bludson, on Cedar street,
on the afternoon of Aug. 6. Bludson,
who can not talk English, claims,
through his interpreter, Deputy Luken-
heimer, that they inveigled him into an
clubhouse. between Seventh and Eighth
streets. and there knocked him down
and robbed him of S41. Ives d Zollman
are defending him. DOnoyan's case is
to come up yet. Startling as is the an
nouncement, the jury brought in a YER
diet of not guilty for John Boyle, the
alleged crook, who was charged with
going through the Minnesota Home, a
hotel down near the union depot yards.
The clerk of the house had been warned
by the police that Boyle was a crook.
and he watched him, and discovered
man who had been robbed. Officer Car
roll arrested him, and he was
allowed to go into room to dress,
where it is supposed he threw away
the evidences of the robbery. The
jury was of the opinion that the police
man should have investigated the mat
ter right there sufficiently to faSten the
guilt upon Boyle. AS soon as he was
acquitted, however, after the announce
ment of the verdict yesterday, Sheriff
Richter locked him up again in his old
cell for attempting to break Jail. 1t was
